Eastenders Nasty Nick actor John Altman looks so different in rare outing at Henley
30.06.2023 - 08:47 / ok.co.uk
EastEnders actor John Altman looked very different from his iconic Nasty Nick days as he stepped out for the Henley Royal Regatta. The 71 year old, who played the villainous son of Dot Cotton on the BBC One soap from 1985 to 2015, showed off a long, gelled-back hairstyle at the famous rowing event - which is being staged in the town of Henley-on-Thames all this week. And John looked worlds away from Walford as he sported a baby blue suit with a white and blue floral shirt and brown shoes.
He appeared to be in high spirits as he walked along the River Thames and took photographs of the boats on the water. John is widely known for his role as drug addict, conman, killer and thief ‘Nasty’ Nick Cotton, famed for his saying: “Allo ma!” Nick Cotton was famously responsible for the death of Reg Cox - who was discovered unconscious in the first scene of the very first episode of EastEnders in February 1985. Nick was a late inclusion to the original cast line-up and was never meant to be a lasting charter.
However, John went on to have six stints on the soap - ending when Nick was killed off in the 30th anniversary episode in 2015.The character’s death was partly scripted as a reenactment of Reg's death in 1985 - with Nick dying in the same spot where his victim had died exactly 30 years prior. Outside of EastEnders, John has appeared in panto, on Celebrity Coach Trip and BBC travel documentary series The Real Marigold Hotel. He was married to Bridget Pouhan between 1986 to 1997, and they share a daughter, Rosanna, 34.
Recently, he has tended to keep out of the public eye. In April last year, however, he paid tribute to his on-screen mother June Brown after her death at the age of 95. He said: "I shall miss my dear, dear friend.
